Stop it. The oven story was not true.

You should have hesitated because it's bullshit. His own organisation denied it though not before they used this fantastical story to fundraise from Republicans in the US.
Two examples, both prominent journalists with a history of hostility towards Corbyn. Note here it's not even Zionists but *Jews*. Could that be considered defamatory? (Both were in a position to know he was talking about 2 specific individuals).
Lipstadt opined on Corbyn on several occasions, yet she does not seem to realise he meant 2 rather than all. Worse still, her claim was that it was in a meeting with Hamas. Was/is Hassassian a member of Hamas?
So it didn't invoke the tropes then because it was a comparison. In this case the 'outsider' was Hassassian not Millett or Hoffman.
@grok Could I point out that the comments referred to two *specific* individuals that self-identify as Zionists not all Zionists. The reason 'irony' was mentioned was because Manuel Hassassian (whose 1st language is not English) had mentioned it in a speech.
